Any way to have separate tooltips for radio buttons?

It seems that all radio buttons of a group have to all use the same tooltip! Is there any way to have separate tooltips for each radio button?

No. This property is shared at the field level, so all widgets of that field will always have the same tooltip.
If you really want to do it you can create separate check-boxes with unique names (and tooltips) and then use a script on the Mouse Up event of each one (or in the calculation script of a text field) to clear the others when it is ticked.

Sorry, but none of these address the fact that you can't assign separate tooltips to radio buttons.  Yes you can name them differently, but, for accessibility, I want to have a tools tip that says "Check if the applicant IS a vampire." and "Check if the applicant IS NOT a vampire".  Still awaiting any guidance available

I should add that I'm dealing with fillable PDFs and not online forms.

I gave you the answer already: it's not possible.

Thanks.  I did find a way to have screen readers read the fields differently.  If you change the field Radio Button Value under Options, the screen reader will read the common tooltip then the "Yes" or "No" value.
